I see today many construction companies are shutting down to keep their workers safe which will help.

All valid points but it must also be noted that every country has their own Chris Witty equivalent. I've seen that Cummings wanted London in lockdown earlier but has that been confirmed and if so do we know where the hold up was?

It's been reported by the BBC so you would hope they verified it if the locals didn't.

The UK's coronavirus policy may sound scientific. It isn't | Nassim Nicholas Taleb and Yaneer Bar-Yam Interesting read. It's by Nassim Nicholas Taleb before anyone loses their shit so pretty authoritative.

Interesting read. Makes me worry that nationalisation and various forms of socialism will be used for the recovery but we'll end up with Putin like characters rising in multiple countries and selling all the new state assets back to themselves and their cronies. Like 2008 somehow this will just...

Yes I know that’s why I said some are just being made to come in. I’ve been at work today myself. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well it’s an opportunity to save lives if you take action. The whole time it’s felt like we’ve been completely caught off guard. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
